It’s one thing to compare our testing results.
It’s another to take these two flagship phones our in direct sunlight and see how they compare.
Superman was definitely not benefitting from our yellow sun through the iPhone.
It was a similar story when I loaded Tom’s Guide on both handsets.
TheAmazonlogo and the white background are a lot more vibrant.
But overall Samsung’s biggest camera advantage over the iPhone remains its dual telephoto lenses.
First up is the shot of a fish market sign at 25x taken across a highway.
There’s more noise in the iPhone’s image.
Lastly, I took this 25x zoom photo indoors from across the room of a vase.
Samsung’s phone won on multi-core and the iPhone on single-core.
But it was not close on the 3DMark benchmark, which measure graphics performance.
By contrast, the iPhone 16 Pro Max mustered 28.1 fps on the same test.
So the Samsung was more than 50% faster on this graphics test.
I prefer this approach.
you oughta spring for a case so that get the necessary magnets to attach to compatible accessories.
With a 45W charger we got to 71% in 30 minutes.
The iPhone 16 Pro Max got to just 55% in the same amount of time.
In our testing the iPhone lasted a bit longer on charge, though both handsets got over 17 hours.
You also get MagSafe charging built in with the iPhone.
